Thanks!

- bad sentences/mistakes - users can report sentences with errors. I'm notified and those sentences are then removed from their queue. Pro users can also ignore sentences, I'm thinking I may make this a free feature in the future as well.

- Difficulty is just by word frequency at the moment, what kind of heuristics do you have in mind?

- I'd definitely like to be able to measure the effectiveness of Clozemaster somehow, but I'm not sure what kind of hard data I could come up with. Perhaps in the future I can come up with some kind of test/experiment to compare traditional single word flashcards vs. Clozemaster, or test reading comprehension somehow after playing Clozemaster for a certain period of time.




I was thinking of heuristics like structural complexity of the sentence:

"The film that came out last week was good."

Every word is very simple but in combination they produce complexity that is challenging to many learners.
